OverviewA thriller in the tradition of Lord of the Flies. In the corridors of Hamilton College lies a secret. Behind the facade is a world of brutality, where rugby rules all and boys must learn to be men ... even if it kills them. When one student makes a stand, another must decide what really matters. Events of the past avalanche into the present and bring students face to face with the shadows in the mirror.

But on the strength of this book he could easily write adult thrillers. * The Age * Nunn has created a well-written, fast-paced and suspenseful story which, one hopes, will ring true with no child. The book will, doubtless, draw comparisons with Robert Cormier's The Chocolate War. * Viewpoint * This multi-layered story has me hanging on to my seat...an engrossing read. * Magpies * Author InformationCameron Nunn is well qualified to write for teenagers.
